Those papers are a new find - well, for me anyway! It's my first time trying out Memory Box papers and they work so well together. Beautiful, balanced pad. Oh, it's called Minuet, almost forgot to tell you that, lol. I am now VERY tempted to get some of the other pads of theirs as well!

Since the card had quite sharp defined layers I wanted to soften it a bit and that glorious Prima lace was just perfect for it. I went a bit wrong with pearls - in theory I was trying to make swirls but I placed the pearls too far apart and it now looks like a random scattering, lol

Ah! The fine shading on the skin is lovely to behold, Annika, could look at anything you've coloured for hours! I love the pearls, you can tell they are in swirls, but they do look random at first, but that is perfect because they look like an extension of the kisses she's blowing, one of the things that caught my eye first actually. Fab work. CoB

This is gorgeous & soooo beautiful I keep looking at this sweet little girl but now I think I'm gonna have to get this stamp & these papers now. As for the pearls I think they look fabulous as they are.

Random scattering can be a good thing :-) Especially where it looks like she's blowing kisses, the pearls naturally scatter like dandelion fuzzies. :-) Beautiful!I really love that paper you used too. I need to go check your link out cos Ive never even heard of them over here.Really lovely card, Annika~

Hi Annika, your cards are always so beautiful and so very different. Such a talent. Oh and wanted to let you know that I have tried your Tut on making clouds. Thanks for that a really easy follow and with great results. Hugs Tamara

This is simply gorgeous! Thank you so much for playing along with us at stamps&fun=CREATIVITY.I am quite sure that you just have been infected with collecting pretty papper-pads! I know what I am talking about, I love them, too....

Gorgeous card, Annika! I'm a self-confessed paper junkie and know so well how lovely the Memory Box papers are! Love the pretty colour scheme and your image is very cute. Thank you for playing at Sweet Stampin' this week. Tracey x

About Me

I had managed to sail through 36 years of my life without any inclinations towards crafting and in firm knowledge that cutting a straight line is physically impossible and therefore pure myth.
Then I got preganant second time, had a sudden idea to make some cards and bought a guillotine.
The rest is history.
